    Roger NaylorSpecial for The RepublicEscape the summer heat with day trips to Bull Pen swimming hole or Woods Canyon Lake. Explore unexpected attractions such as the Dwarf Car Museum. Take an easy hike in Prescott's Granite Dells or soar through the air on Predator Zip Line. Visit Tonto Natural Bridge State Park for scenic views of a huge travertine bridge. In the desert, summer is a marathon. It is a long, exhausting season of endurance.

    In the desert, summer is a marathon. It is a long, exhausting season of endurance. To survive with your sanity intact even as the flaming ball of sun threatens to boil your brains, you have to get out of town upon occasion. Lots of summer living is packed into blessed vacations, holidays and weekends. But when time is limited, that’s when having a few easy day trips in your back pocket comes in handy.

Roger NaylorEspecial paraThe Republic | Traducción Alfredo García, La VozRead in EnglishEn el área metropolitana de Phoenix, la palabra "verano" infunde pavor en el ánimo de los residentes.

    In metro Phoenix, the word “summer” instills dread in the hearts of residents. It’s an ogre of a season. But it doesn’t have to be that way, thanks to Arizona’s endless diversity. Higher elevations are never far. And as we all know, the higher the elevation, the lower the temperature. Plan some escapes from the sweaty clutches of the desert so that you can remember again the fun and freedom that summer brings. Make this a summer to remember, for all the right reasons.
